It was Hitler's last gamble, and it didn't work. One interesting tit bit I read was that, as they were advancing, they shone their lights upwards at the clouds, which reflect it back on them. This made them less detectable than if they just shone their lights straight ahead. Anyway, it never had a chance, given the preponderance of forces, and he would have done better to use those forces on the defence, hoping to bog the invaders down, so they may, just may, get tired and go home.
